alternc (0.9.9) stable; urgency=low
Starting with 0.9.9, we do not overwrite Postfix's main.cf directly
(#1029). However, some settings are directly overwritten, using
postconf -e (as per Debian Policy). Those settings are configured in
/etc/alternc/postfix.cf and are therefore managed as a configuration
file which means that your configuration changes will be preserved.
Also, this is the last release that will overwrite the main Bind
configuration file (named.conf). All changes will be performed in
named.conf.options in the future. This release still installs a new
named.conf that will make sure that this transition functions
properly. See #1025 and #1104.
We also got rid of the bind_internal parameter. This configuration is
not recommended as it allows recursive queries on an authoritative
nameserver. The 'internal' ACL can still be changed in a template if
required. Similarly, we now let the mynetworks configuration in
Postfix up to the administrator and do not prompt for it directly
through AlternC.
We now support Apache2 out of the box, but it's not the default
platform deployed. To install AlternC with Apache2, you will need a
commandline like this:
apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-php5 alternc
Note, however, that this doesn't take care of removing the existing
apache1 installation. This is a more complex operation that must be
performed with a complete package manager like aptitude or synaptic.

per Debian Policy), some settings are directly overwritten. those
settings are configured in /etc/alternc/postfix.cf.
* simplify the bind configuration: do not overwrite named.conf, put
all changes in named.options. get rid of the bind_internal parameter
that is not recommended anyways (as it allows recursive queries on an
authoritative nameserver). Note that the 'internal' ACL can still be
changed in a template if required. named.conf is still deployed by
AlternC, but this will be the last release that does so. See #1025 and
#1104.
